Best Selling Cars Blog

By:Matt Gasnier

The Renault 5 is the best-selling BEV in France in April.

After getting back in positive for the first time in 5 months in March, the French new car market is back down -0.3% year-on-year in April to 138,339 units. The year-to-date tally after four months is down -1.6% to 539,895. Petrol sales are down -24.1% to 21,963, diesel is off -42.8% to 3,834, HEVs edge down -1.3% to 62,241, PHEVs drop -13.1% to 8,333 and BEVs surge 41.8% to 36,216 and 26.2% share vs. 18.4% a year ago in April 2025. YTD BEV sales are up 48.2% to 148,302 and 27.5% share vs. 18.2% over the same period in 2025.

Renault (-11.5%) struggles this month and is down to 16.8% share vs. 18.2% so far this year. In contrast Peugeot (+2.8%) edges up, but at 13.3% of the market it remains below its YTD level of 13.9%. Dacia (-5.3%) is in negative once again, yet less so than YTD (-14.7%). Citroen (+11%) is strong thanks to a renewed lineup, and is followed by Volkswagen (+8%) and a diving Toyota (-17%). Skoda is up 6.9% to a record 7th place, also reached in October 2025 and January 2026. MG is estimated to climb +44.8%, with Audi (+24.1%), Opel (+13.9%) and Nissan (+12.8%) also in solid shape.

Model-wise, the Peugeot 208 (+14%) returns to the pole position it last held last January, distancing the Dacia Sandero (+4.8%) down one spot on last month to #1. The new Renault Clio VI is still finding its groove but falls from 4% share in March to 3.7% this month. The Citroen C3 (+12.1%) satisfies with a 4th place and still ranks #2 year-to-date. Disappointing month for the Peugeot 2008 (-12.3%) down to #5. The Renault 5 (+50.8%) is back to the top of the BEV charts at #6 overall and #7 year-to-date. The Citroen C3 Aircross II (+146.2%), Nissan Qashqai (+61.1%) and Renault Scenic V (+44.5%) all impress, just as the VW T-Roc II breaks into the Top 20 for the first time at #17. The BYD Atto 2 (+655.1%) surges 89 spots on March to #42, the Renault 4 (+743.4%) is down 19 ranks to #49, the new Kia EV4 is up 38 to #52 and the Renault Twingo IV is down 32 to #79 as dealerships get filled up with demo models.
